81 - Delightful Kishore Kumar Hindi Songs


As already indicated earlier, for me Kishore Kumar was the best singer ever, period😊 He brings such craziness in his songs, while singing or enacting himself on the screen, that you can keep on seeing these songs umpteen number of times and still find it very funny!!  Here are a few collections of his songs that fit this category!!  Hope you too would find it funny and enjoyable!!

Tak Dhin Tak from Khalifa (1976) – The first time I head this song was as a kid at my cousin’s place in a gramophone record.  Kishore teams up with Manna Dey and creates a memorable song!!  Even though the film did not do well and not many people would have listened to this song, this a completely zany song with the usual Kishore antics.  Whatever is said in this song is true even in the current times!! Randhir Kapoor and I S Johar enact this song.  I saw this song only while writing this blog.  Listening to the song is much more enjoyable than seeing it😊. There is also this line in this song –   Jo gaane hum gaate hain woh gaane hit ho jaayen!! You can listen to the song here –https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3P1A9FZjCXg.  And you can see the song in the movie here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gpE8-6BOVM

Do Bechaare Bina Sahaare from Victoria No 203 (1972) – Kishore teams up with Mahendra Kapoor and has a ball in this song.  On screen, the song is being sung by Ashok Kumar and Pran looking for a lock as they have a key😊.  Even though the concept is funny, seeing these thespians enact the song is totally hilarious!!  And with their over-the-top wig, the entire song is a laugh-riot!!  Enjoy it here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F90nkxGzD_M

Ek Chatur Naar from Padosan (1968) – The most delightful song that you can watch over and over again for Kishore and Mehmood!!  Kishore again teams up with Manna Dey and Mehmood and gives us this gem of a song.  Sunil Dutt is competing with Mehmood in this song.  Since Sunil cannot sing, he asks Kishore to sing in the background, being hidden, and Sunil does lip synching for the song.  You also find Keshto Mukherjee and Mukhri playing with comb, paint brush, broomstick, broken cot and oil-tin giving music to the song!!  The facial expressions of Kishore and Mehmood are so enticing that every time you see the song, you find it even more captivating!!  Mehmood lip syncs for Manna Dey and himself in this song.  Enjoy it here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGfTQ-YFjIE

One more interesting thing about the Ek Chatur Naar from Padosan. It seems that this is an inspired version from an Ashok Kumar song😊  You can see the Ashok Kumar song here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtthfgNa7YY

Meri Pyaari Bindu from Padosan (1968) – Another gem of a song from Kishore.  Just watch Kishore dancing to the words in this song.  It seems effortless and from the heart.  When the soundtrack of the movie was released, this song was missing from the audio cassette as they felt it is not a full song.  Later on, when the song became hugely popular, they had to add this song to the music album😊.  Enjoy it here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zr_enRRcyuw

Guni Janon Bakht Janon from Aansoo Aur Muskaan (1970) – This song starts as a bhajan and ends up mentioning the names of most of the heroes of the film industry from 1950’s to 1980’s😊.  And all the names are mentioned in a rhyming style considering the music of the song!!  In the song Kishore says he will tell the story of the movies and starts reciting the names with the briefest intro on each of them!!  During that time Kishore was also being harassed by the Income Tax guys.  He makes a mention of that too in the song!!   Enjoy this gem here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Etx0Y5YmACs 

C A T Cat Cat Maane Billi from Dilli Ka Thug (1958) – Another hugely awesome cult song with crazy dancing by Kishore.  The song features Kishore and Nutan who also matches Kishore’s craziness!!  It seems that Kishore was given total carte blanche to do whatever he wanted to do in this song.  And he just lets it go shaking all parts of his body grooving to the music😊.  Enjoy it here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLVJ_QGcPyE

Meri Lottery Lag Jaane Waali Hai from Holi Aayee Re (1977) – A forgotten song, but not by me😊. Have been listening to this for decades!! Picturised on Rajinder Kumar in the movie.  But the wordings and the accentuations are too good, in a typical Kishore style!!  Just listen to him singing in supposed-to-be-African😊 language!!  Enjoy it here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7U_ZAU53H8

Cheers until next time!!

167. Ramanarayanam Temple, Vizianagaram

Image
This temple should be on your must-watch bucket list!  It was inaugurated in March 2014.  Not many people are aware of this temple.  I spoke to an official there as to why they are not promoting this in a big way.  He said they have a website and all the details are published there.  I believe, since most of the stuff is mentioned in Telugu language, they are not able to attract many visitors.  Although for the Hanuman 3-d laser projection show, held thrice in the evening, there is a crowd.    The temple is located on the outskirts of the Vizianagaram town. The temple is in the shape of a bow.  At the two ends of each bow, there are 2 temples, one for Ram-Lakshman-Sita and one for Vishnu.  Between the temples, shaped in the two bows, there are two galleries depicting Ramayana.  A total of 72 laminated moldings depict the entire Ramayana. At the mid-way of the two galleries, is a tall Hanuman statue, on which the 3-d laser show is ...
